Excuse me what? A lottery ticket‽

Not from Taiwan, but the way it works is that there's a unique ID on each of the receipts. The ID is there anyways, so no additional things to be done at this point. What's different is that a lucky ID is announced e.g. every month, and the person with the receipt can collect a small amount of money.
